Now, I will preface this by saying I dont think all servicement are evil or anything. It's a matter of perspective.
That being said, I can find lots of pictures of Dick Cheney, Rummy, many of the Rockefellers etc cuddling up to family or babies. In many of them those people look downright friendly.
Doesnt mean I'd trust them to babysit my kid.

I don't think THESE guys are as much a threat to us as someone would have us believe. I don't think they are as much of a threat as I would have had you believe.

I concur with you that the men and women of our armed forces are probably not our enemy.
But, I would not bet you one nickel that the United Nations troops are our friends.
Our government could use UN troops that don't care that we are Americans and many probably don't like us anyway.
I have many friends active and retired service people. I don't believe they would shoot me even if ordered to do so. The UN soldier would kill me if ordered I am sure.

It's more the cops I don't like than the military. Most soldiers believe they are working for the good, even though they're really just working for old money. Cops on the other hand, more often than not, are power-hungry bullies. Many ex-cops will agree with me too.
